Achilleus Shield service

Security Dog Units

Specialist dog-and-handler teams for assignments where enhanced detection, deterrence or searching capability is justified.

Professional local protection

A specialist capability for clearly assessed requirements.

Security dog services require careful assignment planning, competent handlers, suitable welfare arrangements and clear control measures. They may support guarding, patrols, searching and protection of high-risk or expansive environments.

Designed around the requirement

Accountable security dog units from the outset.

A strong service specification reflects the site, operating hours, access arrangements, people at risk and the practical consequences of an incident.

Instructions, escalation, reporting and review arrangements are agreed before mobilisation so responsibilities remain clear.

Useful answers before you enquire.

Are dog units appropriate for public-facing sites?

Only where a suitable assessment supports their use and the public interface can be safely controlled.
